Storyline
Set in the village of Thuneri near Ooty in the Nilgiri hills, a series of mysterious and brutal deaths plague the community. Villagers attribute the killings to the vengeful spirit of Karuppasamy, the village watchman, who demands vengeance from beyond the grave. A young woman and her companions find themselves trapped in this haunted village, caught between supernatural forces and the harsh realities of a community gripped by fear and superstition. The film weaves together folklore, horror, and the psychological terror of a village controlled by belief in the paranormal. As deaths mount, the line between rational explanation and supernatural horror becomes increasingly blurred.
“A village cursed, a spirit avenged”
